I'm a programmer, and a lot of times I'm deciding what to do...read, watch movies, watch netflix. I also want to improve all the time, and I also want to work on my side projects, but I don't always feel motivated. I've found the best way, typically, is to watch or read something interesting about programming. Lately, "Clean Code" is a bit inspirational, or talks from pycon on pyvideo. It's enough motivation to get me started, and getting started keeps me going, for those few hours at least. Rinse, repeat.
